Book Synopsis

"I'll find you, in this world or any other."

Enter a world where time travelers are destined to love faeries-a tale of forbidden magic, prophecy, and empire.

A dream-eating World Tree feeds upon the people of the Floating City, slowly devouring their souls. As a religious resistance builds against the Tree and its tyrannical inquisitors, the city is filled with prophecies of a time traveler who will return their stolen dreams.

The Tree dispatches the slave Saya, a shape-shifting faerie whose wings were stolen from her, to locate the time walker. When she confronts him, Saya can't shake the feeling that this untamed traveler named Andreas is the same boy who once gifted her wings in a dream. The two forge an unlikely alliance to save the city, each suspicious of the other's motives even while they hide their growing feelings for each other.

As a civil war ignites, they must use cursed magic to journey through the uprising, across time and parallel worlds to bring down the malignant Tree. Can they rescue the souls of their people and their lost dreams of each other?

This is a story about hope and healing for everyone who believes the wounds in your heart are how the light gets in.
